are no more. UFL has pulled the plug. The article mentions that 3 teams moved to different cities last year. This doesn't sound like a sustainable business model if half your league is moving cities in a 2 year period.

It's a subsidized farm league. Butts in seats is gravy, but that's not where they get the bulk of their revenue. The league will sustain as long as the networks continue to subsize it. Hell, I think Fox Sports owns a big chunk of it. It's football in the spring, so they get eyeballs on it.

College Football is King in the South.

Have a 6 game spring college football league using the 3rd and 4th strings of each SEC school. That way they get playing time and no Fall starters get injured*****
